2006-09-28IB/iser: Have iSER data transaction object point to iSER connErez Zilber
iSER uses a data transaction object (struct iser_dto) as part of its IB data descriptors (struct iser_desc) management. It also uses a hierarchy of connection structures pointing to each other. A DTO may exist even after the iscsi_iser connection pointed by it is destroyed (eg one that is bound to a post receive buffer which was flushed by the IB HW). Hence DTOs need point to the lowest connection, which is struct iser_conn. Signed-off-by: Erez Zilber <erezz@voltaire.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2006-09-22IB/iser: Do not use FMR for a single dma entry sgErez Zilber
Fast Memory Registration (fmr) is used to register for rdma an sg whose elements are not linearly sequential after dma mapping. The IB verbs layer provides an "all dma memory MR (memory region)" which can be used for RDMA-ing a dma linearly sequential buffer. Change the code to use the dma mr instead of doing fmr when dma mapping produces a single dma entry sg.

2006-09-22IB/iser: make FMR "page size" be 4K and not PAGE_SIZEErez Zilber
As iser is able to use at most one rdma operation for the execution of a scsi command, and registration of the sg associated with scsi command has its restrictions, the code checks if an sg is "aligned for rdma". Alignment for rdma is measured in "fmr page" units whose possible resolutions are different between HCAs and can be smaller, equal or bigger to the system page size. When the system page size is bigger than 4KB (eg the default with ia64 kernels) there a bigger chance that an sg would be aligned for rdma if the fmr page size is 4KB. Change the code to create FMR whose pages are of size 4KB and to take that into account when processing the sg.

2006-07-14[PATCH] fmr pool: remove unnecessary pointer dereferenceMichael S. Tsirkin
ib_fmr_pool_map_phys gets the virtual address by pointer but never writes there, and users (e.g. srp) seem to assume this and ignore the value returned. This patch cleans up the API to get the VA by value, and updates all users. Signed-off-by: Michael S.
